It should be illegal to take pictures of these
Putting thousands of satellites into LEO is not progress, it’s pollution.
GET OUTTA THE WAY we’re trying to study space here, taxes or going to nasa too here you know
Lmfao. Humans.
How about use some of that surplus solar you guys can get now.. and use it to power a smaller version of the Laser AMS.. the one the airforce is working on.. except with photon radiation pressure.. to deflect small chunks of stuff.. not as an actual thing that can even be considered a weapon.
In the future all those satellites will fall down to earth.
Science is way more important so shoot the satellites down
Amazing video and thank you for breaking it down!! Despite the economic downturn, I'm so happy 😊.I have been earning $15,200 returns from my $7000 investment every 14days
Hey, Mass! Good to see you again!
Hubble is on the edge of decommission. We're nearly 2 decades past it's projected operational life. If we want to save it we can always move it but barring a potential collision I don't see a reason to do so besides wasting funds that could go towards new missions.
Seems nowadays going into space is like entering a major highway during a 24/7 traffic jam. Very dangerous especially to astronauts/cosmonauts to the ISS and the Chinese space stations.
Why can't they move Hubble out more.
Private satellites of any purpose is more important to me than a nearly obsolete telescope looking at planets we are thousands of years from visiting, I mean invading and consuming other planets.
Space should be commodified and nationalized to the benefit of our species as a whole. I know that concept angers many, but we can innovate and compete without being beholden to private and commercial interests. A company doesn’t need to be the arbiter of what happens in space. These otherworldly decisions should be democratically accountable from top to bottom. Space monopolies will be a disaster.
Elon Musk starlink Is the biggest culprit
Not even died from CNN and Don Lemon is already working for NBC. Well done
